Upgraded Petsuchos is one of the best ranged units in the game, They can fill a similar role as Longbows in regular AoEII, large numbers of them can kill most enemies before they can reach them. Pairing them with a Roc is great 'cause the Petsuchos is so slow otherwise.

A bit late to this, but even though they aren't the strongest I always found fun uses for the anubites. As an example, while the army would be seiging a wall I would have the anubites target something on the other side, jump over, and then use meteor or something on top of the town center. Their utility to get around defenses to harass villagers is what I found most useful
@hybralisk3 жыл бұрын
I wonder if any of your test areas had some wonky results due to terrain elevation changes. Units attacking others on high ground do less damage and vice versa, in many RTS games. I'll have to learn if that's the case with AoM... I looked it up online. So far, the sources I've come across all indicate that many ranged units deal bonus damage to units that are at a lower elevation than they are. I humbly suggest that any future test areas you use have a 100% flat terrain area so there's no wonky bonus stuff affecting your tests. :)

I'd say Centaur is best greek unit. Heka Gigant is best Alt unit, Petsudos is the best egypt unit. Fire giant is the best Norse myth unit. White tigers is the best China unit. lmo. most of the myth units in the game need buffs. They either cost too much population, have to little stats(ad/health) or their ability has too high of cooldown on their special ability.

The big issue i have with you assessment of prices is simply put that food is worth the least ammout due to it being infinitely available to all civs. Sure there is trade making wood technically the most important resource, but the fact remains that gold is the most scarce of all the resources map wise, making it worth more than food. I would say 100 gold equals 125 wood and 175 food in general.
